Drawstring blue top

Description

Hi!!! This is based model 124 from Burda issue 7/2009. The original pattern had a wrap at the back and a tie at the waist…I removed them both because I wanted a really easy to wear top for the hot summer days. I also added a doubled band at the bottom. It was a very quick project. Next summer I plan to use the pattern again as it is, with the wrap and the belt and all:)

The top is one of Burda’s best. am going to make it too ( maybe some day when invent how to combine the wrap on the open back and my bust that needs a bra).
The band on the bottom is nice finding, in fact, you created a new pattern. In combination with the pants, the top looks fresh and bright. Your look will make many necks broken:))

Thanks!!! The pattern is one of my favorites too and I would have sewn it as soon as I purchased the issue if there wasn’t the bra problem. Neither I can go without a bra with this top (I will look totally bustless!), so I hope that you invent the way! As for the broken necks: I wore it yesterday and I had no victims:P

Oh, really? I wasn’t so sure about it so thanks a lot for the positive feedback! Of course I will sew it again, it takes only 1 hour and a little piece of fabric! I’m glad that you liked the sandals, they are my favorites!
